I created this blog to share positive, upbeat information. I only write reviews for books I love and feel good about recommending. I also enjoy sharing my writing/publishing learning experiences with other writers. I'd love to hear from you. Please use the comments link on each blog post to share your own views and experiences.
The general schedule is reviews on Monday, writing tips on Wednesday, pot luck on Friday.

The Moonwalk Challenge Nears the Finish Line

The 6-month Moonwalk Challenge is coming to an end and my hardworking team has proven we are much better at walking than raising money for worthy causes. It looks like we'll exceed our goal of walking enough miles to circumnavigate the moon, but we've raised a pitifully small amount for the Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis.

I've personally walked an average of 26 miles a week. With more than 500 miles under my feet, I'm one of the lowest mile people on my 10 person team. I feel bad for only raising $225 for the cause. I'm glad I don't earn my living via fund raising. Clearly, I'd be unemployed.

MS is a horrid disease that strikes both children and adults. I personally know two adults who were struck in their prime. Neither is a close friend, but it is still difficult and humbling to watch relatively young people fight to keep normalacy in their lives while an unseen predator saps more of their physical abilities each day.

Accelerated Cure is a four star charity working to find the cure that will eliminate MS. You can help!

Accelerated Cure Project for Multiple Sclerosis is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, nonprofit public charity.
